Reducing the Stigma of Prostate Cancer: Rensford De Haan

After attending a free screening event, Rensford De Haan began treatment at Princess Margaret Cancer Centre for a cancer he didn’t even know he had. The mobile event was led by Dr. Neil Fleshner, Love Chair in Prostate Cancer Prevention at The Princess Margaret. This unique initiative was part of a concentrated effort to bring screening directly to more Black men, a community that faces a higher risk of prostate cancer due to both systemic barriers and genetic factors.
